Only yesterday (Friday, February 16) the Post confirmed that the bollard will be given a seat at the upcoming awards ceremony, and that it is also set to be reinstalled in the next few weeks.

Almost 48,000 people voted for the eight finalists of the City Star Award run by the city's Business Improvement District (BID).

Manager Mark Whittle said: “We have been in contact with the bollard and we are expecting an appearance in some capacity as well as a few other surprises."
